Gino Gordon Selected as COOP Athlete of the Week

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – After a career rushing
day against Princeton, Gino Gordon has been selected as the COOP
Athlete of the Week for Oct. 25.

Gordon rushed for a career-high 204 yards on 20 carries (10.2
ypc) in the Crimson’s 45-28 defeat of the Tigers. Gordon
wasted no time tallying the yards as his first carry of the game
went for 56. Gordon evened the score, 7-7, in the first quarter on
a 26-yard touchdown scamper that capped a four-play, 94-yard
Crimson scoring drive. Gordon would finish the first half with 134
yards on nine carries.

Gordon also caught four balls for 30 yards in the game. His 234
all-purpose yards accounted for just over 40 percent of
Harvard’s 583 total yards of offense in the game. The
senior currently leads the Crimson with 711 rushing yards and is
averaging an Ivy League best 7.8 yards per carry this season.
